And if you know me or if you've spent enough time reading this blog, you'll know that on most any other occasion, I'd have the inimitable, otherwordly Swans leading this list. So what gives? Well, as it turns out, I'm a man who harbors the occasional regret. [...]

Photo Credit: Andrew St. Clair 21 years after its inception, Lollapalooza is a festival that does most things right. For quite a while, it's been in a very convenient area and has an excellent line-up, even compared with competing fests such as Bonnaroo, Coachella, and Outside Lands. When done right, a great festival includes bands for everyone, and Lollapalooza does this to near perfection. Among the headliners: Jack White and Red Hot Chili Peppers , Justice , Kaskade , Bassnecter and Santigold [...]

Wow what an interesting opening day. Fans packed in early despite the scorching hot temperatures (somewhere around a 105 degree heat index out on the Grant Park baseball diamonds), but if you were expecting weather to prevent thousands of people from enjoying this great lineup, you would be dead wrong -- more than once this weekend. Started it off right by getting in to the grounds quickly and heading straight to see Yellow Ostrich (for the second day in a row). Gotta show some love for the fellow Wisconsinites whenever possible. It doesn't hurt that [...]

For the eighth time in a row, Lollapalooza returned to Chicago's Grant Park. While the festival has received its share of rain over the years (e.g. Billy Idol's mesmerizing sun shower set in 2005, The Gaslight Anthem's downpour debut in 2009, Best Coast's muddy power hour in 2011, to name a few), the grounds have never had to shut down . Yet with recent catastrophes at festivals worldwide, management took no chances and they made the right choice. Only three hours were ultimately lost and in those three hours something wild happened - there was a sense [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News Steve Mitchell, Invision/AP The usual hustle and bustle surrounding Chicago's historic Grant Park in early August manifested itself once again, as it does perennially. The eighth Lollapalooza festival based in Chicago and the 21st overall shut down roads and brought tens of thousands of weekend revelers armed with an insatiable appetite for live music. Sunlight poured through the trees at the Google Play stage, where rising U.K. outfit [...]

Dubstep continued to heat up the charts in June, grabbing dozens of spots on blog charts. Zeds Dead, as usual, was a popular sound on several blogs. Bassnectar also made a couple appearances, including for his recently released Massive Attack 'Remix' that was sent out by his crew about 2 weeks ago. I see a ton of familiar names on this list, which is also neat - ALGERONICS, Clancy, Hyper Crush, Religion, and Tommie Sunshine have all been blogged by us at some point, along with most of the rest of the artists on this list!
